Founders Week valuable,
A highlight in the vast and varied range of Bethel
activities throughout the year is that of Founders Week.
The quantity and quality of excellent and provocative speak­ers
and seminars make time spent involved in the con­ference
a worthwhile investment. This year is no exception,
considering such speakers as Maria "Hansi" Hirschmann
C. Peter Wagner, Richard Halverson, and Charles Colson:
Yet over the years some students have had a tendency to
shy away from the Founders Week activities. Excuses for
not attending the conference are given, a popular one being:
"It's not for me; it's for older people - the Conference
big-shots." In short, a substantial number of Bethel students
feel that Founders Week is essentially a time for archaic
armies of arid artifacts to assemble, renew old friendships,
and listen to each other give speeches.
We do not deny that this is a part of Founders Week,
because it is. But this assemblage of faithful friends of Be­thel
is important, in that it gives the college a nostalgic
twang for a week, and in that it gives tactile proof to the
existence of support for Bethel that exists far beyond the
confines of this physical plant. For one week we as a school
have the opportunity to be immersed in our heritage and our
faith, an opportunity that should not be taken lightly.
In connection with this, and to highlight the value of
Founders Week let us look at last year. The two major
speakers, Alvin Dark and Corrie ten Boom, drew overflow
crowds, crowds consisting heavily of non-Bethel people. Dark,
then manager of the Oakland A's, gave a challenging talk
about his life and witness in baseball. And Corrie ten Boom,
survivor of the World War II concentration camps and hero
of 'The Hiding Place," inspired thousands in her talks about
the need to commit oneself to Christ. These moments were
unforgettable highlights of the school year.
This year's Founders Week promises to pick up where
last year's left off. Considering the topics that are to be
discussed, and ,the speakers that will be assembled, it is
hoped that students will not exclude themselves from the
proceedings.

campus. Apparently people are parking in illegal areas
(Le., service lot, fire lane, visitors' parking places). Also,
it seems that some who have been assessed parking fines
are refusing to pay. This has resulted in numerous head­aches
and hours of extra work for maintenance officials, who
are at wit's end trying to develop a solution to the prob­lems.
In the past several years, the maintenance department,
operating on a limited budget, has taken several major
steps to improve existing park,ing lots and to establish new
areas for student parking.
Possibly, this is not enough; maybe there are not enough
parking spaces to meet our needs, and all parking problems
are a direct result of this insufficiency. Or maybe we are
simply lazy and inconsiderate in our attitudes toward parking.
Maybe we would rather park illegally than have to walk
from a lot farther away or drive from Old Campus rather
than take the bus. We tend to believe that, for the most
part, the latter is true, and that these parking violations
are inexcusable.
Students should be warned that continued problems may
result in some serious action by the "authorities." Possibly,
freshmen in years to come will not be allowed to have
a car on campus; or maybe Chuck "Tow 'em" Haaland
will be reassigned to parking lot duty. Let's make a con­certed
effort to obey the existing parking rules and avoid
these radical solutions.

Provocative alternatives proposed to
irresponsible money-making marathon
Dear Sir:
I write this letter in re ponse to certain ' activities that
have been held and sponsored by particular organizations of
the college. The activities I refer to are marathons to raise
money for worthwhile organizations. These organizations are
very needy yet I react strongly to the non-~roductive method
of raising these funds. I feel we must not only have re­sponsible
goals but means of reaching these goals that re­flect
the same responsible thinking. Would it not be more hon­oring
to the community and ultimately to the Lord if the-mon­ey
was raised by productive service activities. Here are a few
suggestions, lest I be accused of pointing a finger without
offering an alternative. Have a Senior Citizen work day
where students would pledge sponsored time to help our ,
older citizens shovel snow, wash and change storm windows
and do other necessary inside/outside work. Another sugges­tion
would be to sponsor a work day at the Union Gospel
Mission or one of their camps, or other such organizations.
Lastly, donate time to visiting or sharing with those in hos­pitals
or rest homes.
Sincerely,
J ,oel Goff (73)

Besides freezing temperatures, Mt. Zion tubing, down
parkas, and the "Uncle Wiggily" Tournament, winter heralds
another added attraction at Bethel. Intramural basketball.
From November to March, various men's and women's 1M
basketball divisions, leagues, tourneys, and playoffs occupy
the minds, hearts, and bodies of many otherwise sane Bethel
stUdents. The apex of all this athletic activity is men's
Open League, featured in January, February, and March and
consisting of teams the students themselves create. Because
of the tremendous fan support that Open League receives
(on a good night, a bored student, two misguided girl­friends,
al1d a stray dog are in attendance), and because
Open League basketball is, in its own strange way, a vital
part of Bethel, I have decided to write a "Fan's Guide
to Open League Basketball":
1. An essential part of gaining a true comprehension of
Open League basketball is that the fan must realize that
individual glory, and not teamwork, is the goal of the average
participant. This is not a terribly difficult fact to ascer­tain.
For instance, a traditional Open League play is the
one in which the player with the ball is thirty feet from
the basket, triple-covered, and with two teammates all alone
under the basket, and .. out of the crowd the player laun­ches
a shot directed in the general direction of the basket.
Sure, the team could have used the easy two points, but
that would have taken a pass, and passing is all but non­existent
in Open League.
To further prove that individual glory is the cornerstone
of Open League motivation, the ~ fan only needs to watch
the statistician after a game is completed. Players are at­tracted
to the area like bees to honey, desperately attempt­ing
to discover how many points they scored, and how many
points the other players didn't score. Note: Don't become per­plexedcoilcerning
those players who don't go to the scorer's
bench after the game. These are the players who realize
they didn't score a point. Just wait till they have a good
game.
2. The spectator should not be shocked at the strange
playing styles. Don't go to an Open League game expecting
to see, albeit in rough form, basketball technique as seen
-in the average college game. Shots such as the two-hand,
fall-away, bloop shot are' commonplace, while the slam-continued

A Second Wind
by Mark D. Johnson
Evaluation and reassessment of goals and objectives is
something we all need to do from time to time. At this
time in the year while we are all catching our second
wind let us look back on the old dust-covered campaign
pro~sals on which Bob Moeller and myself came into of­fice.
If you can remember, we are the "Voice that Lis­tens,"
so if you haven't heard anything from us, it is be­cause
we've been listening. Seriously, we would like to share
some of- the proposals on which we ran, and be held ac­countable
to them. Our basic goal was to create a better
climate of a Christian Learning Community. We labeled
six areas of the community and proposed changes which we
would work to accomplish. Briefly, they were the following:
Academic Climate - the maintenance of academic quality
by limiting enrollment.
World Awareness Climate - a major relief project, im­plementation
and participation in a paper recycling program,
support of the blood donations. •
Student Services Climate - minimum participation in
food service to eliminate monetary loss, work to eliminate
long lines during registration.
Spiritual Climate -...: support and actively participate in
dorm Bible studies, witnessing groups, etc.
Social Climate - establishing an old campus social center
(coffee shop).
Student Senate - establish qualitative and quantitative
goals.
We have actively communicated our interest to maintain
enrollment limits to our administration and the Board of
Regents. The food card requirement was maintained from
last year without I any rise in student participation. All of
the other goals except registration lines have been accomp­lished
or are in the process of completion with the help'
of the Senate from the basketball marathon to the old
campus coffee shop.
In addition to these tasks we have sought to rally the
student Qody around a project known as "Bethel Heritage."
Although mentioned many times on the editorial page, one
thing is left unsaid. We felt the support of half of the polled
student body was a noteworthy amount and we hope that you,
the up-and-coming Bethelites, will not completely divorce
the possibility of a student building program in the future.
Many new ways in which we can build a better Chris­tian
Learning Community will be looked into by our Sen­ate
as we work to establish specific goals for -the coming
semester. We are in agreement with the editorial in last
week's Clarion on ·this issue. But we feel that a lot of the
leadership is going to have to come. from the senior members
of the Senate. Their sense of seeing what needs to be done
is key to a young, yet interested, Senate. We see a min­ority
sitting on the bench and viewing the world through
critical eyes. We thank you for the "gadfly" position that you
hold but if it could be coupled with constructive decision
making we would have a more effective body of legis­lators
on the Bethel community. We would appreciate your
response and suggestions for a more effective Senate and
serving of Christ.

Substitute loresident aims
to maintain Bethel progress
by Jim Morud
When Harvey DeVries learned that he had been se­lected
as the man to take the place of President Lund­quist
as he goes on sabbatical next semester, he was
a _bit flattered. However, the hard-working Vice President
of Public Affairs is not undertaking his temporary post
without a clear understanding of the challenges he will be
facing.
"I expect to learn an awful lot about the Bethel campus
from the perspective of the president's office," said De­Vries.
"This will be a growing experience and an oppor­tunity
to be exposed to a whole different set of problems."
During his nearly twelve years of service at Bethel,
DeVries has traveled widely and frequently to tend to the
business affairs of the college and to meet with the friends
of Bethel who offer their support to the school.
As Vice President of Public Mfairs, DeVries says that
he has been "exposed to a great deal of the response and
feeling of our supporting constituency," but in the office
of the president he expects to "get a much better ex­posure
to the campus" because the president must deal with
a more widespread array of problems.
. During the next semester, De Vries will find himself con­fined
to a more disciplined schedule as he must be present
to preside 'at administration meetings and to coordinate var­ious
administrati~· affairs. Much of his time will be spent
working with the Board of Regents and committees , on
necessary matters of government with additional attention
given to a certain amount of ceremonial responsibility such
as ~ttending professional and educational meetings and func­tio.
ns.
DeVries does not anticipate any new developments or re­ordering
of objectives in the Bethel community during his
period of substitution.
"I would like to see further progress in the things
which are already in motion," said DeVries, "and to keep
the momentum going." ~

Exc,ha,nge stu-de-nt' comments on Bethel,' Maca lester
by Lanny L. Law
"1 would encourage everyone here at Bethel to recog­nize
what an opportunity it is to be in the presence of so
many brothers and sisters, and to praise, God for this priv­ilege,"
said Levin Tull, a Macalester College student, enrolled
in Dr. Glenn's "Christian Spirituality" class during Interim.
A senior, majoring in biology, Levin considers it a blessing
to come to Bethel. "First of all, 75 percent of my excite­ment
is because of being surrounded by so many Chris­tians,
and to know I could find Christian fellowship from
so many students," he said. "The other 25 percent is a re­sult
of the presence of 800 Christian women. Here I know most
of the girls I encounter love the Lord, and our relationship
can be centered in Christ.
For Levin, such internal qualities in other people didn't
matter much until about two years ago. Taking Interim'
off in 1974, Levin visited his sister in Flagstaff, Arizona.
"She had ' been a Christian for 'a year and a half, and in­vited
me to go to s6me mid-week church gathering after
I bad been down there for a while. The minister, who had ­been
a heroin add~ct and set free from his 'habit' years
earlier, spoke of his experiences in the Christian life."
For _ Levin, drugs were his god - and his lifestyle re­volved
around them. "The minister's words convicted me, and
that night, I went forward, got on my knees, and 'believed
that Jesus would save me from my sins and give me a
new life.' '
Bethel and Macalester are each good academic instit-
, tions. They are relatively the same size, and are both located
in St. Paul. However, the similarities end here. Questioned
about what gives meaning to Macalester students in general,
Levin replied, "Worldly possessions and other temporal oddi­ties
or excitements. The richer the kid, the more' expensive
the diversion."
"Back at Ma~alester, I began going to an Inter-Varsity
chapter, called Mac Christian Fellowship, and have continued
doing so for two years. Today we have 70 Christians on
our roster, and have four Wednesday night meetings per
month in which to r~flect on what has been taught and
how it has related to our lives.
"Outside thes'e meetings, we do many social activities .
together, and also have "fell groups" (fellowship groups of
4-7 people)," Levin continued. "Because Macalester is rel­atively
small like Bethel, people know who the Christians
are and how they act. We do one-to-one witneSSing and
can only be effective when we are good models. Mac­alester
kids aren't interested in what some little booklet
has to say. They want to twist our guts and see what's
inside us - to see if what we say we have, is what we
really have."
Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Life Together, a text in Dr. Glenn's
class, says, "It is easily forgotten that the fellowship of Chris­tian
brethren is a gift of grace, a gift of the Kingdom
of God that any day may be taken from us .. It Is not an
ideal which we must realize; it is rather a reaUty created
by God in Christ in which we may partiCipate."
Job oppoirtu'niti'es in Europe available' fo', qu:a'iified students
Work this summer in the forests
of Germany, on construction in Aus­tria,
on farms in Germany, Sweden and
Denmark, in industries in France and
GermaIW, in hotels in Switzerland.
These jobs are available as well
as jobs in Ireland, England, France,
Italy, and Holland. They are open
. by the consent of the governments of
these countries to American university
students coming to Europe the next sum­mer.
For several years students made their
way across the Atlantic through A.E.S
Service to take part in the actual life
of the people of these countries.
Every year, the program has been ex-panded
to include many more students
and jobs. Already, many students have
made application for next summer's jobs.
American-European Student Service (on
a non-profitable basis) is offering these
jobs to students for Germany, Scandi­navia,
England, Austria, Switzerland,
France, Italy, and Spain. The jobs con­sist
of forestry work, child care work
(females only), farm work, hotel work
(limited number available), construction
work, and some other more qualified
jobs requiring more specialized training.
The purpose of this program is to
afford the student an opportunity to get
into real living . contact with the people
and customs of Europe. -In return

for his or her work, the student will
receive his or her room and board,
plus a wage. However, students should
keep in mind that they will be working
in the European economy, and wages
will naturally be scaled accordingly. The
working conditions (hours, safety, regula­tions,
legal protection, work permits)
will be strictly controlled by the labor

There, a'nd ba~ckaga;n
by Diana Gonzalez
At the unlikely hour of 6 a.m. 'on Thursday, Jan. 5,
thirty students and three teachers from the Lewis, Tolkien
and Williams class 'at Bethel ventured south to Wheaton.
In their two-day trip, deemed inadequately short by most
participants, they i~mersed themselves in the study of four
authors whose work is featured in the Wheaton College Wade
Collection. The WC:tde Collection contains many of the unpub­lished
writings, original manuscr!pts, subsequent translations
and most of the material published about seven prominent
British writers. Among these are C.S. Lewis, George Mac­Donald,
J.R.R. Tolkien and Charles Williams, which were the'
authors which the Bethel class was particularly interested
in. One of the highlights of I the Wade Collection is the C.
S. Lewis intricately hand-carved wardrobe, which played an
important part in the Narnian Cpronicles (The Lion, the
Witch, and the Wardrobe).
After arriving at Wheaton at 5 p.m., the weary travel­ers
attended a lecture on George MacDonald entitled Myth
and Theology and The 'Golden Key. The students spent
the night enjoying the hospitality of Wheaton English majors
in their respective dorms. The next day's hectic schedule
included a lectUre of ,C.S. LeWis's trilogy called The Land·
scape of Redemption. Students were also able to do some
individual research working from the Wade Collection.
Although the trip included traveling mishaps such as
frozen fuel lines which increased the time spent on the road,
students and teachers both enjoyed the experience. The class
arrived back at St. Paul on Saturday at 2 a.m. Despite
the off-beat hours, all remained in good spirits. Ms. Bohl­meyer
commented, "They impressed me as cheerful travel­ers."
Ms. Bohlmeyer appropriately terms the journey There
and Back Again, which is also the title of one of Tol­kien's
books.

Grapplers battle tough
schedule, iniuries; show
improvement, dedication
by Jim Morud
When Coach Dave Klostreich reviewed the. accomplish­ments
of his Royal wrestling squad at this point in the season,
he expressed mixed feelings.
"It has been a bit frustrating so far because our squad
has been depleted as a result of injuri~s, ineligibilities, and
kids OLlt for Interim. But I've been pleased with the ded­icationof
the team." "
If dedication is a key ingredient in the formula for a
good wrestler, then several Bethel grapplers have been dis­playing
what they're made of in recent weeks.
For instance, senior team captain Rick Smith w:..on every
match but one in the grueling St. John's Takedown Tourn·
ament on Jan. 10'. That one remaining match, he tied. Be­cause
of a technical decision by officials, Rick had to leave
the arena with only second place honors after the man who
drew with him was awarded the championship in the 167-
pound bracket.
Jeff Zitzloff, a junior 177-pounder, battled to a ' fourth
place finish in the same tournament, as .J erry Miller, a jun­ior
at 134 pounds, and Dave Lindenberg, a junior 158-
pounder, each wrestled his way into a fifth place finish.
The following week at home in the Bethel Royal Invi­tational,
Klostreich's crew · failed to produce any individual
champions. But again, the dedication was there. .
"We weren't at our strongest peak at the Invitational,"
explained Klostreich. "We just weren't 'the team we were
before Christmas. But I saw a lot of improvement last
weekend foom some individuals and, when the injuries are
repaired, we'll be strong again."
Jerry Miller continued to be a winner as he grabbed
fourth place, this time in the 142-pound class. Mike Reeves,
a freshman at 150 pounds, had one of the most exciting
rna tches of the day as he came from behind to tie his op­ponent
in the final seconds of the match. Then in overtime,
Mike b<l;ttled out another draw with his competitor. After
a circus of questions and disputes, a referee's decision
gave Mike's foe the victory. His happy opponent went to
the showers immediately, only to be called back by still­arguing
officials for a re-match period to settle the matter
once and for all. This time Mike came out on the short
end as he was edged by two points. Undaunted, Mike
, went on to finish fourth in the tournament.
At 177 pounds Jeff Zitzloff took home third place bon­ors.
His final two matches of the day were hardly worth
warming up for as the stalwart junior stuck his opponents
to the mat in 32 and 30 seconds, successively.
Barret Holmgren, a 190-pound freshman, showed his stuff
as he worked out another third place finish for the team.
"Holmgren is a 'i-eal surprise for only being a fresh­man,"
said Klostreich. "He proved he can wrestle well in
collegiate competition. I'm pleased by Scott Urquhart's im­provement
too. He's another promising freshman."
Barret also wasted no time in his final two matches as
he pinnned his last two contenders.
Team honors went , to Concordia-Moorhead while Bethel
ended up with sixth place out of ten teams.
This week the team hosted Hamline on Wednesday night
for its final home appearance before the Conference Meet,
which will be held in the Bethel gymnasium on: Februay

off-the-backboard, missed layup is an old favorite. And many
Open League players have in their repertoire an incredibly
hilarious imitation of a man playing bas~etball with bricks
taped to his hands, as seen in the various forms of pounding
which goes by as dribbling, and in the passes which spend
five minutes being batted around the court. (Fortunately,
passes are rare, or this maneuver could dominate the game.)
3. Although the officials might appear to be incredibly
haphazard and inconsisitent, they do follow a certain pattern
that should be mastered by the spectator for a comprehen- .
sion of the sport. The starting point of all Open League
officials is a simple maxim: No blood, no foul. All manner
of elbowing, shoving, kicking and biting is allowable, as long
as it only manifests itself in bruises, concussions, or broken
bones. (Dislocations, at times, are an exception, although
this is up to the discretion of the individual ref,)
Maybe after reading this "Fan's Guide to Open League
Basketball," you have concluded that Intramural basketball
is strange, ridiculous, and generally absurd. It is. But 1M
basketball is one of the last bastions of pure sport, and for
that reason, I hope it never changes.
c. Peter Wagner, director of the Fuller Evan­gelistic
Assoociation, will be a featured speaker
Tuesday and Wednesday of Founders Week.
Something for everyone
as Bethel celebrates its
34th Founders Week
Bethel faculty members, Baptist General Conference per­sonnel,
and well-known personalities from all over the country
will be among the many speakers as Bethel observes its
34th annual Founders Week conference, January 26-30, in
the college gymnasium.
The conference will consist of Bible studies seminars
worship services, fellowship periods, and rallie~. Daytim; '
sessions will be held daily, Tuesday through Friday, be­beginning
at 8 :30 a.m. with a Bible study period. There will
be meetings throughout each day, with nightly inspirational
rallies at 7 :30 p.m.
Dr. Bob Smith will open the week's proceedings on
Monday evening, speaking at a special Bicentennial ban­quet
at 6 :30. Other "major" speakers include: Charles W.
Colson, former special counsel to President Richard Nixon,
who only recently became a Christian; Lewis A. Drummond,
an Evangelism Professor from Southern Baptist Seminary;
Richard C. Halverson, Minister of the Fourth Presbyterian
Church in Washingto, D.C.; Maria Anne ("Hansi") Hirsch­mann,
well-known author and lecturer; Lyle E. ,Schaller, a
church consultant with the Yokefellow Institute; C. Peter
Wagner, director of the Fuller Evangelistic Association;
and Thomas F. Zimmerman, the superintendent of the As-
. sem blies of God.
All the sessions are free and open to the public. Stu­dents
are strongly encouraged to attend. Campus Pastor Jim
Spickelmier, who will be speaking on Thursday and Fri­day,
made the following statement concerning Founders
Week and student participation: "One of the unique services
Bethel offers to the churches and Christians who support
us is Founders Week. Each year pastors and laymen come
from all parts of the country for a week of inspiration and
motivation led by some of the outstanding Christian leaders
of our world. I encourage Bethel students to take full
advantage of the lectures and worship services. Some of the
best speakers we will have on campus all year will be
concentrated in these four days."
Last year two of the main Founders Week speakers
drew overflow crowds with many non-Bethel people at­tending.
Alvin Dark, then manager of Oakland A's, gave
a challenging talk about his life and witness in profession­al
baseball, and Corrie ten Boom told of her life during
and after World War II. These were unforgettable highlights
of the entire year, and this year's conference promises to
pick up where they left off.

Iowans prolong Royal slump; Bethel
looks for w:eekend wi ns a,t ho'm,e,
by Dan Swanson
The Bethel Royals traveled down to
Iowa last weekend to open conference
play against Northwestern and Westmar
and came home empty-handed. Following
a pattern close to that of pre-conference
games, the Royals played in contention
but could not pull out a victory.
In the first game on Friday night,
the Royals played at Northwestern, al­ways
a <;lifficult ' place to win. Don Cary
led Bethel with 19 points as they led
by one point at halftime. In the second
half, the Royals ran into foul trouble.
Gordie Gibson, Paul Healy and Curt
Oslin all fouled out as the Red Raid­ers
cashed in from the free throw line
to pull away. According to senior center
Paul Healy, the Royals handled North­western's
press and fast break very well
and played a good game, but the breaks
worked against them.
ten
The next afternoon at Westmar was
a different story except for the final
outcome. Playing a much weaker team,
the Royals were dull and played poor­ly.
They shot only 42 percent from
the , floor as Westmar won 86 to 73.
Don Cary, Craig Oslin and Paul Healy
each had 15 points but the Royals were
plagued by turnovers. Bethel lacked on
the offensive boards and could not make
up for the poor shooting percentage.
The Royals continue conference action
tonight by hosting Sioux Falls college
at 7 :30. Tomororow afternoon at 2 :30
Bethel will play Yankton, also at home.
It will be the last two home games
during Interim.
(Editor's note: Tuesday night the Royals
defeated Concordia of St. Paul by a
score of 74-71.)

Founders Week valuable,
A highlight in the vast and varied range of Bethel
activities throughout the year is that of Founders Week.
The quantity and quality of excellent and provocative speak­ers
and seminars make time spent involved in the con­ference
a worthwhile investment. This year is no exception,
considering such speakers as Maria "Hansi" Hirschmann
C. Peter Wagner, Richard Halverson, and Charles Colson:
Yet over the years some students have had a tendency to
shy away from the Founders Week activities. Excuses for
not attending the conference are given, a popular one being:
"It's not for me; it's for older people - the Conference
big-shots." In short, a substantial number of Bethel students
feel that Founders Week is essentially a time for archaic
armies of arid artifacts to assemble, renew old friendships,
and listen to each other give speeches.
We do not deny that this is a part of Founders Week,
because it is. But this assemblage of faithful friends of Be­thel
is important, in that it gives the college a nostalgic
twang for a week, and in that it gives tactile proof to the
existence of support for Bethel that exists far beyond the
confines of this physical plant. For one week we as a school
have the opportunity to be immersed in our heritage and our
faith, an opportunity that should not be taken lightly.
In connection with this, and to highlight the value of
Founders Week let us look at last year. The two major
speakers, Alvin Dark and Corrie ten Boom, drew overflow
crowds, crowds consisting heavily of non-Bethel people. Dark,
then manager of the Oakland A's, gave a challenging talk
about his life and witness in baseball. And Corrie ten Boom,
survivor of the World War II concentration camps and hero
of 'The Hiding Place," inspired thousands in her talks about
the need to commit oneself to Christ. These moments were
unforgettable highlights of the school year.
This year's Founders Week promises to pick up where
last year's left off. Considering the topics that are to be
discussed, and ,the speakers that will be assembled, it is
hoped that students will not exclude themselves from the
proceedings.

campus. Apparently people are parking in illegal areas
(Le., service lot, fire lane, visitors' parking places). Also,
it seems that some who have been assessed parking fines
are refusing to pay. This has resulted in numerous head­aches
and hours of extra work for maintenance officials, who
are at wit's end trying to develop a solution to the prob­lems.
In the past several years, the maintenance department,
operating on a limited budget, has taken several major
steps to improve existing park,ing lots and to establish new
areas for student parking.
Possibly, this is not enough; maybe there are not enough
parking spaces to meet our needs, and all parking problems
are a direct result of this insufficiency. Or maybe we are
simply lazy and inconsiderate in our attitudes toward parking.
Maybe we would rather park illegally than have to walk
from a lot farther away or drive from Old Campus rather
than take the bus. We tend to believe that, for the most
part, the latter is true, and that these parking violations
are inexcusable.
Students should be warned that continued problems may
result in some serious action by the "authorities." Possibly,
freshmen in years to come will not be allowed to have
a car on campus; or maybe Chuck "Tow 'em" Haaland
will be reassigned to parking lot duty. Let's make a con­certed
effort to obey the existing parking rules and avoid
these radical solutions.

Provocative alternatives proposed to
irresponsible money-making marathon
Dear Sir:
I write this letter in re ponse to certain ' activities that
have been held and sponsored by particular organizations of
the college. The activities I refer to are marathons to raise
money for worthwhile organizations. These organizations are
very needy yet I react strongly to the non-~roductive method
of raising these funds. I feel we must not only have re­sponsible
goals but means of reaching these goals that re­flect
the same responsible thinking. Would it not be more hon­oring
to the community and ultimately to the Lord if the-mon­ey
was raised by productive service activities. Here are a few
suggestions, lest I be accused of pointing a finger without
offering an alternative. Have a Senior Citizen work day
where students would pledge sponsored time to help our ,
older citizens shovel snow, wash and change storm windows
and do other necessary inside/outside work. Another sugges­tion
would be to sponsor a work day at the Union Gospel
Mission or one of their camps, or other such organizations.
Lastly, donate time to visiting or sharing with those in hos­pitals
or rest homes.
Sincerely,
J ,oel Goff (73)

Across from Flaherty/s Bowl
by Bill Trollinger
Besides freezing temperatures, Mt. Zion tubing, down
parkas, and the "Uncle Wiggily" Tournament, winter heralds
another added attraction at Bethel. Intramural basketball.
From November to March, various men's and women's 1M
basketball divisions, leagues, tourneys, and playoffs occupy
the minds, hearts, and bodies of many otherwise sane Bethel
stUdents. The apex of all this athletic activity is men's
Open League, featured in January, February, and March and
consisting of teams the students themselves create. Because
of the tremendous fan support that Open League receives
(on a good night, a bored student, two misguided girl­friends,
al1d a stray dog are in attendance), and because
Open League basketball is, in its own strange way, a vital
part of Bethel, I have decided to write a "Fan's Guide
to Open League Basketball":
1. An essential part of gaining a true comprehension of
Open League basketball is that the fan must realize that
individual glory, and not teamwork, is the goal of the average
participant. This is not a terribly difficult fact to ascer­tain.
For instance, a traditional Open League play is the
one in which the player with the ball is thirty feet from
the basket, triple-covered, and with two teammates all alone
under the basket, and .. out of the crowd the player laun­ches
a shot directed in the general direction of the basket.
Sure, the team could have used the easy two points, but
that would have taken a pass, and passing is all but non­existent
in Open League.
To further prove that individual glory is the cornerstone
of Open League motivation, the ~ fan only needs to watch
the statistician after a game is completed. Players are at­tracted
to the area like bees to honey, desperately attempt­ing
to discover how many points they scored, and how many
points the other players didn't score. Note: Don't become per­plexedcoilcerning
those players who don't go to the scorer's
bench after the game. These are the players who realize
they didn't score a point. Just wait till they have a good
game.
2. The spectator should not be shocked at the strange
playing styles. Don't go to an Open League game expecting
to see, albeit in rough form, basketball technique as seen
-in the average college game. Shots such as the two-hand,
fall-away, bloop shot are' commonplace, while the slam-continued

A Second Wind
by Mark D. Johnson
Evaluation and reassessment of goals and objectives is
something we all need to do from time to time. At this
time in the year while we are all catching our second
wind let us look back on the old dust-covered campaign
pro~sals on which Bob Moeller and myself came into of­fice.
If you can remember, we are the "Voice that Lis­tens,"
so if you haven't heard anything from us, it is be­cause
we've been listening. Seriously, we would like to share
some of- the proposals on which we ran, and be held ac­countable
to them. Our basic goal was to create a better
climate of a Christian Learning Community. We labeled
six areas of the community and proposed changes which we
would work to accomplish. Briefly, they were the following:
Academic Climate - the maintenance of academic quality
by limiting enrollment.
World Awareness Climate - a major relief project, im­plementation
and participation in a paper recycling program,
support of the blood donations. •
Student Services Climate - minimum participation in
food service to eliminate monetary loss, work to eliminate
long lines during registration.
Spiritual Climate -...: support and actively participate in
dorm Bible studies, witnessing groups, etc.
Social Climate - establishing an old campus social center
(coffee shop).
Student Senate - establish qualitative and quantitative
goals.
We have actively communicated our interest to maintain
enrollment limits to our administration and the Board of
Regents. The food card requirement was maintained from
last year without I any rise in student participation. All of
the other goals except registration lines have been accomp­lished
or are in the process of completion with the help'
of the Senate from the basketball marathon to the old
campus coffee shop.
In addition to these tasks we have sought to rally the
student Qody around a project known as "Bethel Heritage."
Although mentioned many times on the editorial page, one
thing is left unsaid. We felt the support of half of the polled
student body was a noteworthy amount and we hope that you,
the up-and-coming Bethelites, will not completely divorce
the possibility of a student building program in the future.
Many new ways in which we can build a better Chris­tian
Learning Community will be looked into by our Sen­ate
as we work to establish specific goals for -the coming
semester. We are in agreement with the editorial in last
week's Clarion on ·this issue. But we feel that a lot of the
leadership is going to have to come. from the senior members
of the Senate. Their sense of seeing what needs to be done
is key to a young, yet interested, Senate. We see a min­ority
sitting on the bench and viewing the world through
critical eyes. We thank you for the "gadfly" position that you
hold but if it could be coupled with constructive decision
making we would have a more effective body of legis­lators
on the Bethel community. We would appreciate your
response and suggestions for a more effective Senate and
serving of Christ.

Substitute loresident aims
to maintain Bethel progress
by Jim Morud
When Harvey DeVries learned that he had been se­lected
as the man to take the place of President Lund­quist
as he goes on sabbatical next semester, he was
a _bit flattered. However, the hard-working Vice President
of Public Affairs is not undertaking his temporary post
without a clear understanding of the challenges he will be
facing.
"I expect to learn an awful lot about the Bethel campus
from the perspective of the president's office," said De­Vries.
"This will be a growing experience and an oppor­tunity
to be exposed to a whole different set of problems."
During his nearly twelve years of service at Bethel,
DeVries has traveled widely and frequently to tend to the
business affairs of the college and to meet with the friends
of Bethel who offer their support to the school.
As Vice President of Public Mfairs, DeVries says that
he has been "exposed to a great deal of the response and
feeling of our supporting constituency," but in the office
of the president he expects to "get a much better ex­posure
to the campus" because the president must deal with
a more widespread array of problems.
. During the next semester, De Vries will find himself con­fined
to a more disciplined schedule as he must be present
to preside 'at administration meetings and to coordinate var­ious
administrati~· affairs. Much of his time will be spent
working with the Board of Regents and committees , on
necessary matters of government with additional attention
given to a certain amount of ceremonial responsibility such
as ~ttending professional and educational meetings and func­tio.
ns.
DeVries does not anticipate any new developments or re­ordering
of objectives in the Bethel community during his
period of substitution.
"I would like to see further progress in the things
which are already in motion," said DeVries, "and to keep
the momentum going." ~

Exc,ha,nge stu-de-nt' comments on Bethel,' Maca lester
by Lanny L. Law
"1 would encourage everyone here at Bethel to recog­nize
what an opportunity it is to be in the presence of so
many brothers and sisters, and to praise, God for this priv­ilege,"
said Levin Tull, a Macalester College student, enrolled
in Dr. Glenn's "Christian Spirituality" class during Interim.
A senior, majoring in biology, Levin considers it a blessing
to come to Bethel. "First of all, 75 percent of my excite­ment
is because of being surrounded by so many Chris­tians,
and to know I could find Christian fellowship from
so many students," he said. "The other 25 percent is a re­sult
of the presence of 800 Christian women. Here I know most
of the girls I encounter love the Lord, and our relationship
can be centered in Christ.
For Levin, such internal qualities in other people didn't
matter much until about two years ago. Taking Interim'
off in 1974, Levin visited his sister in Flagstaff, Arizona.
"She had ' been a Christian for 'a year and a half, and in­vited
me to go to s6me mid-week church gathering after
I bad been down there for a while. The minister, who had ­been
a heroin add~ct and set free from his 'habit' years
earlier, spoke of his experiences in the Christian life."
For _ Levin, drugs were his god - and his lifestyle re­volved
around them. "The minister's words convicted me, and
that night, I went forward, got on my knees, and 'believed
that Jesus would save me from my sins and give me a
new life.' '
Bethel and Macalester are each good academic instit-
, tions. They are relatively the same size, and are both located
in St. Paul. However, the similarities end here. Questioned
about what gives meaning to Macalester students in general,
Levin replied, "Worldly possessions and other temporal oddi­ties
or excitements. The richer the kid, the more' expensive
the diversion."
"Back at Ma~alester, I began going to an Inter-Varsity
chapter, called Mac Christian Fellowship, and have continued
doing so for two years. Today we have 70 Christians on
our roster, and have four Wednesday night meetings per
month in which to r~flect on what has been taught and
how it has related to our lives.
"Outside thes'e meetings, we do many social activities .
together, and also have "fell groups" (fellowship groups of
4-7 people)," Levin continued. "Because Macalester is rel­atively
small like Bethel, people know who the Christians
are and how they act. We do one-to-one witneSSing and
can only be effective when we are good models. Mac­alester
kids aren't interested in what some little booklet
has to say. They want to twist our guts and see what's
inside us - to see if what we say we have, is what we
really have."
Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Life Together, a text in Dr. Glenn's
class, says, "It is easily forgotten that the fellowship of Chris­tian
brethren is a gift of grace, a gift of the Kingdom
of God that any day may be taken from us .. It Is not an
ideal which we must realize; it is rather a reaUty created
by God in Christ in which we may partiCipate."

There, a'nd ba~ckaga;n
by Diana Gonzalez
At the unlikely hour of 6 a.m. 'on Thursday, Jan. 5,
thirty students and three teachers from the Lewis, Tolkien
and Williams class 'at Bethel ventured south to Wheaton.
In their two-day trip, deemed inadequately short by most
participants, they i~mersed themselves in the study of four
authors whose work is featured in the Wheaton College Wade
Collection. The WC:tde Collection contains many of the unpub­lished
writings, original manuscr!pts, subsequent translations
and most of the material published about seven prominent
British writers. Among these are C.S. Lewis, George Mac­Donald,
J.R.R. Tolkien and Charles Williams, which were the'
authors which the Bethel class was particularly interested
in. One of the highlights of I the Wade Collection is the C.
S. Lewis intricately hand-carved wardrobe, which played an
important part in the Narnian Cpronicles (The Lion, the
Witch, and the Wardrobe).
After arriving at Wheaton at 5 p.m., the weary travel­ers
attended a lecture on George MacDonald entitled Myth
and Theology and The 'Golden Key. The students spent
the night enjoying the hospitality of Wheaton English majors
in their respective dorms. The next day's hectic schedule
included a lectUre of ,C.S. LeWis's trilogy called The Land·
scape of Redemption. Students were also able to do some
individual research working from the Wade Collection.
Although the trip included traveling mishaps such as
frozen fuel lines which increased the time spent on the road,
students and teachers both enjoyed the experience. The class
arrived back at St. Paul on Saturday at 2 a.m. Despite
the off-beat hours, all remained in good spirits. Ms. Bohl­meyer
commented, "They impressed me as cheerful travel­ers."
Ms. Bohlmeyer appropriately terms the journey There
and Back Again, which is also the title of one of Tol­kien's
books.

Grapplers battle tough
schedule, iniuries; show
improvement, dedication
by Jim Morud
When Coach Dave Klostreich reviewed the. accomplish­ments
of his Royal wrestling squad at this point in the season,
he expressed mixed feelings.
"It has been a bit frustrating so far because our squad
has been depleted as a result of injuri~s, ineligibilities, and
kids OLlt for Interim. But I've been pleased with the ded­icationof
the team." "
If dedication is a key ingredient in the formula for a
good wrestler, then several Bethel grapplers have been dis­playing
what they're made of in recent weeks.
For instance, senior team captain Rick Smith w:..on every
match but one in the grueling St. John's Takedown Tourn·
ament on Jan. 10'. That one remaining match, he tied. Be­cause
of a technical decision by officials, Rick had to leave
the arena with only second place honors after the man who
drew with him was awarded the championship in the 167-
pound bracket.
Jeff Zitzloff, a junior 177-pounder, battled to a ' fourth
place finish in the same tournament, as .J erry Miller, a jun­ior
at 134 pounds, and Dave Lindenberg, a junior 158-
pounder, each wrestled his way into a fifth place finish.
The following week at home in the Bethel Royal Invi­tational,
Klostreich's crew · failed to produce any individual
champions. But again, the dedication was there. .
"We weren't at our strongest peak at the Invitational,"
explained Klostreich. "We just weren't 'the team we were
before Christmas. But I saw a lot of improvement last
weekend foom some individuals and, when the injuries are
repaired, we'll be strong again."
Jerry Miller continued to be a winner as he grabbed
fourth place, this time in the 142-pound class. Mike Reeves,
a freshman at 150 pounds, had one of the most exciting
rna tches of the day as he came from behind to tie his op­ponent
in the final seconds of the match. Then in overtime,
